Dear Alex and Ayska,
How are you both? This is CHRISSY!!!! Rebekah has gone away to visit family in England for 3 weeks. I bet she'll be sad she didn't get to write to you again - BUT if she gets back before school finishes I will get her to write to you both again!
I bet you both remember MY favourite colour ... PINK!!!!! I like to eat pizza too, I like making it at home, yum yum yum.
So how are you both enjoying Grade 2? Ayska, I hope you are not talking too much like last year? And Alex, I bet you are a great leader in Kristy and Kay's class? 9 o'clock is late to be getting to bed Alex! Ayska, it is nice to see you and Vishwa are still friends this year.
So, guess what? We finish school here in 3 more weeks, then we have a HUGE summer holiday. I taught the class here "sevens" do you both remember that clapping game? Maybe you could teach it to Kristy's class this year. It's taken some practise, but we have almost learnt it all.
Their favorite clapping rhyme is of course "SPLIT" ("My Aunty Rosy picks her nosy, 24 hours a day..." that version!)
Anyway girls, hope you're having a FUN year, looking forward to hearing back from you.
Your old teacher and new penpal, Chrissy

Sincerely Evan
Dear Evan,
Yes I would come to Canada. The highest temperature it has got is probably 40. I like to draw in class, Maths, computers, jobs, and writing. I liked being your penpal. Let’s keep in contact. Kristy will send Chrissy my email address.
Sincerely, Oktavius
